Hair as fertilizer

Hair can be used as fertilizer. After decomposition and calcification, hair can produce sufficient nutrients needed by plants. Moreover, crops that add hair fibers to the soil will grow relatively better.

Hair can be used as fertilizer for many plants and flowers, such as lettuce, mugwort, poppy, feverfew, tiger skin plant, green ivy, bougainvillea, etc.

How to make fertilizer from hair

1. Fermentation: Mix the hair, water, fermentation agent, etc. evenly, put them into a sealed container together with water under the sun, and wait for natural fermentation to complete. The fertilizer is ready.

2. Direct use: In addition to this, hair can also be directly mixed with chemical fertilizers and placed in the soil, so that it can be used directly.

Key points for using hair fertilizer

1. Hair cannot be used alone as fertilizer. The nutrients in it cannot be used as the sole source of nutrition for plants, otherwise the plants will easily grow poorly.

2. Hair can be used as fertilizer after being mixed with certain chemical fertilizers, but the hair must be kept clean, otherwise it will affect the growth of the plant.
